WIN not Hang To-day.

BALTIMORE, August 25.-JOhn Thomas
Ross, the negro "burker," sentenced tobe
hanged in the city jail yard at noon to-
morrow, has been granted. by Governor
Lloyd, a reprieve Of two weeks. Although
the Governor has been petitioned 10
change The death sentence TO life tmpris
onment, this brief lease OF life granted
Ross to day Is about the only executive
clemeucy hs will receive. The murderer
did not expect even a reprieve. and TO day
bid his mother and number Of friends
good. bye. A lew days ago Ross was im-
mersed in the fountain I'm the Jail yard, he
having profcssed conversion to the Bap
tist faith. The negro fully expected to die
to morrow, and when told Of the reprieve
to night laughed aud clapped his hands
with Joy, and said he knew the Lord
would be kind to him. Ross says he ID
reconciled to his fate, but he regrets that
Perry, the negro employe Of the medical
college to whom X, ss sold the body OF the
murdered woman, will not be hanged
with him. Ross tas always contended
that PERI, melted him TO murder the old
/ woman, Emily Brown.
